A pipe with an inner diameter of 8 inches (0.67 ft) carries water (ρ = 62.4 lbm/ft3, μ = 6.72 x 10-4 lbm/ft ⋅s) horizontally at a flow rate of 3.1 ft3/s. The pipe has been in service for a very long time, so the wall surface has become fairly rough (ε = 0.008 inches). The pipe is 1550 ft long.
A) Calculate ΔP over the pipe length in psi
B) Suppose the old pipe is now replaced with a hydraulically smooth pipe with an inner diameter of 0.48 ft. If ΔP remains the same, what will the new volumetric flow rate be?

A farmer is to pump water at 70'F from a river to a water storage tank nearby using a 125-ft-long, 5-in-diameter plastic pipe with three flanged 90 smooth bends. The water velocity near the river surface is 6 ft/s, and the pipe inlet is placed in the river normal to the flow direction of water to take advantage of the dynamic pressure. The elevation difference between the river and the free surface of the tank is 12 ft. For a...

4. An old, rough-surfaced, 2-m-diameter concrete pipe with a Manning coefficient of 0.025 carries water at a rate of 5.0 m'/s when it is half ful. This pipe is to be replaced by a new smooth pipe with a Manning coefficient of 0.012. Determine the diameter of the new pipe if it also is to flow half full with a flow rate of 5.0 m'/s Water initially flowing in the horizontal section of pipe of diameter 12.00 cm shown in...
